sounds to me like the author was naive and idealistic, nothing wrong with that, it hurts everyone when people do the wrong thing by others. maybe what they are doing by publishing the story is trying to warn others not to just take people at face value and be aware of your own biases. its a good lesson. no further naming or shaming required.

The author was running a paper mill with underpaid postdocs students and presenting their work as her own with very minimal supervision.

How do you know that they were underpaid? How do you know that she was presenting there work as hers - science is collaborative in the extreme now. It is very rare for a paper to be produced by one author. At one time I wrote a few such papers and I was told that it was actually a black mark against me for a post because I was someone who couldn't collaborate!
